Although IEEE 802.11p technology is standardized for road safety and efficiency applications, the channel congestion problem is its key weakness necessitating distributed congestion control (DCC) algorithms on different layers of the communication stack. In this paper, we propose DCC-enabled Contention based Forwarding scheme targeting multi-hop dissemination of Decentralised Event Notification Messages...
Internet of Things (IoT) is considered to be the next revolution in the field of wireless communications. This concept involves mapping of physical world to virtual (cyber) world. It is achieved by interconnecting devices having sensing capabilities using unique addressing scheme and passing their collective information to the IoT cloud. However at present, these devices belonging to different technologies...
Social connections among network users have been well investigated as an additional opportunity in network design, such as in routing strategies and trusted networking. This paper presents a paradigm shift that explores the design and performance analysis of combining social links jointly with communication links to support message delivery in wireless networks. In a combined social and communication...
The limited capacity of batteries of nodes imposes a constraint on ad hoc networks. Thus, energy efficiency is critical to prolong the network lifetime. Network traffic should be routed such that the energy consumption is minimized. In this paper, we discuss the energy-efficient multicast problem in ad hoc networks with the respect of delay. Multicast routing deals with finding a multicast tree, which...
Wireless sensor network is a collection of a group of sensors connected to monitor an area of interest. Installation flexibility, mobility, reduced cost and scalability have given popularity to wireless sensor networks. Opportunistic routing is a routing protocol that takes the advantage of broadcasting nature of wireless sensor network for multi-hop communication. Considering the importance of communication...
This paper addresses the problem of search with local information in combined social and communication networks. Social networks are modeled with short-range and long-range connections representing small-world and scale-free network characteristics. By distinguishing the delay and success probability on different social links, the end-to-end delay distribution and success probability are derived as...
There have been several geographic routing protocols proposed for disseminating data in Wireless Sensor Networks. In these protocols, routing is based on the location of neighboring nodes and the selection of the next hop is done based on a direction based or a location based strategy. In this paper, a novel routing protocol that makes use of this direction based strategy to disseminate data in the...
Wimax is an broadband wireless technology based on IEEE 802.16. It is very helpful and cheaper than other possible solutions. It is purely based on the 4G technology for the upcoming generation. In wireless technology the major problem is speed, Quality of Service, data rates in order to overcome that they going for some valuable technology. In this paper we consider WIMAX and WLAN for controlling...
Rapid technological advances and innovations in the area of autonomous systems push the researchers towards autonomous networked systems with emphasis on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). In WSN event-driven applications, it is critical to report the detected events in the area, resulting in sudden bursts of traffic due to occurrence of spatially-correlated or multiple events, causing loss of data...
Network coding (NC) has been shown to improve the throughput of multi-hop wireless networks (MWN). Prior work on performance modeling of NC mainly addresses the maximization of throughput. However, these works fail to capture the complete picture since there may be paths in the network for which end-to-end packet delay is prohibitively high. In this paper, we address the problem of delay minimization...
Wireless sensor network (WSN) deploys tiny wireless sensor nodes to communicate with each other with limited processing speed, power and security measures. A recent WSN routing protocol defined as Secure Real-Time Load Distribution (SRTLD) has been developed to provide realtime transfer, high delivery ratio, and longer sensor node lifetime. However, SRTLD uses broadcast packets to perform neighbor...
IRDT (Intermittent Receiver-driven Data Transmission) realizes low-power communication between neighbor sensor nodes. This paper proposes combination IRDT-GEDIR of IRDT and GEDIR which is an on-demand location-based ad-hoc routing protocol. Here, for shorter end-to-end transmission delay, pseudo speed of data message transmission is applied for next-hop selection in an intermediate node and on-line...
As a routing algorithm defined in IEEE 802.15.5, server routing (SR) can attain the optimal routes between source and destination nodes. However, we found that it has the following two problems: (1) unicasting the Link State Registrations does not utilize the available topology information, and (2) the relay list of Route Formations includes redundant contents. To address these problems, we propose...
In this paper we propose the channel assignment scheme for multi-channel wireless mesh network (WMN), where each mesh router is equipped with multiple radio interfaces. In real WMN the number of radio interfaces is much higher than the number of non-overlapping channels, which causes a lot of connections between mesh nodes operate on the same radio channel. Increasing number of simultaneous transmissions...
This paper investigates traffic related performance for TCP/UDP-based traffic flows in a MANET powered by OLSR with various routing metrics. Besides the ETX (expected transmission count), an alternative is proposed that resorts on a cross-layer approach to obtain PER (packet error rate) estimates from the physical layer. Throughput and latency performance are evaluated for various configurations of...
Several reliable packet routing approaches have been studied to achieve a high reliable VANET by using the Car-to-car communications and Inter-Vehicle Communications. VANET suffers from high mobility, diverse road topologies, and wireless interference, and thus significantly degrades the connectivity of packet transmissions and network performance. The mathematical analysis can help the approach efficiency,...

Multipath routing has been proved effective in mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) for coping with link failures resulting from node mobility. In wireless mesh networks (WMNs) where routers are generally static, the traffic carried by the backup paths may adversely impact other flows and the multicast group itself, because these paths increase the number of transmissions and thus the level of interference...
